My friends and I have been playing with Dungeon Manager, and it seems to be what you're looking for. It does some calculations, but very few. It lets you fill in pretty much everything, from class to race to skills. The sheet is not perfect, espcially when you work with spells, but it's pretty...

Thanks all. We usually play for six to seven hours, but some other things have come up that prevent us from playing our normal session. And Bret - you've got my name! Only with one 't'! coolio-io.

I'm sure this has been beat to death, but I can't search the previous threads... But I'm pretty torqued at one of my fellow players.. He's refusing to play Saturday night because he's thinks it's a waste of his time to play only a four and a half to five hour session. So based on that, what is...

Heretic Apostate - So close it's not even funny. I didn't even remember that one 'till you brought it up. But since I'm insanley bored at work: "Despite the fact that my weapons and armor are in desperate need of repair, I blow the entire reward on ale and ..." -Skull That'd make an awesome .sig.

I must ask that you forgive my ignorance. Although I've been playing D&D for many, many years, it's only been within the last year that I began playing 3E. I wasn't aware that the Assasin was now a PrC, and that she actually has spells now. Weird.

I disagree with the alignment restriction on assasins, too. They didn't have that in 2e, did they? I played an assasin once that was working for and had very strong ties to his country. He didn't think he was evil; on the contrary, what he was doing was for the good of his country. Taking out...

Romance comes into play in our games, although we've always kept things tastefull. Discussion of whether a PC gets "laid" is discussed outside of game. The only time it comes up is when we find out that an NPC is with child. It's always amazed me that we're not more open in game about this...

Looks cool, but I think maybe the fort saves for cold/fire are backwards? Maybe I'm backwards, as I'm up to early.

I had a Palm Vx for a while that I loved, but never could find a use for it at the table. I'm now using an iPaq, and the only use I've found for it so far is an equipment list in Excel; I can have it automatically calculate my weight. I'd love to use it for my character sheet, but haven't found...

A little of both, I think. If you don't taylor the adventures towards the PC at least a bit, you have players that focus on power-gamming instead of roll-playing when they build thier characters. It can be more fun for your players if you let one shine for an adventure every once in a while. And...

Vecna Optimus Prime v. He-Man.

Thanks all, this all helps a bit. I really like the bit about switching out skills at first level. I'll have to talk to my DM about that next time we start out a campaign. Happy holidays to all!

Of course I'm not going to be able to win the Tour de France, but it's because I only spent one or two skill points in biking, and not 56. In college, a person is forced to take a great deal of classes. Say I want to major in Math (I don't, but this is fantasy after all). I have to take English...

mm.. All these points came up, when I had this discussion with me DM, but I don't understand it... I hold that no one only does one thing. I'm a computer tech by profession, but that does not define me. If I want to bicycle for example, would it really be that much harder for me to learn than it...

I've been in discussion with my DM for a few hours now, and still am unhappy with the reasons given for the existence of cross-class skillz. We have established that fighters spend more time fighting than studying, and that would explain why they get better base attack progression and fewer...

Hey now.. My lawful good figher just got a set of black chain (idea stolen from The 13th Warrior). So much for the stereotype.

If a DM was kind, he/she might let you use the feat to throw ANYTHING. It would be really cool then. Think the most recent version of the Mummy, not the sequel. When Brendan's character threw that chair. That was greatness.

I always thought of magic as more like the Jedi using the Force. Magic is an external "force" that can be called upon and manupulated through the various componants.. Psyonics are developed from within, and I think of Jean Grey/Professor X when I think of psyonics. I think that I've always been...

Elves, half-elves, and humans mostly. A little mix, but very little. I'm actually coming up with a new character now, a drunken master. Not sure if he should be human or dwarf. Suggestions?
